I upgraded Movable Type to their stellar new version, and reactivated comments, now that the engine enables me to review them before they post. (It also has a nifty feature that allows anyone who’s registered at TypeKey.)
Read all about the lovely new engine here:
Movable Type Publishing Platform
Installation isn’t for the novice, however. If you just want to crank up a blog without having to worry about cgi scripts and web hosting, try the excellent TypePad a Movable Type spinoff. Or the venerable (and gloriously now-owned-by Google) Blogger

Wow!
Good looking site Drew. Glad to see you back with comments. Hope the spam doesn’t become a problem for you?
You should give, or have given, WordPress (wordpress.org) a look. Very user friendly and no long rebuilds! Very clean and well formatted code too. And did I mention lots of plugins as well as comment-spam moderation? Perhaps a link to them in your weblog tools list is appropriate?
Hope the new job is still great!?
